 The Image may also be an expression to allow for user configuration, more details on that are provided in the [HTCondor documentation](https://research.cs.wisc.edu/htcondor/manual/latest/3_17Singularity_Support.html).
 
+## Kerberos
+The module provides support for Kerberos auth, to the extent to which this is implemented in HTCondor.
+
+Example configuration parameters could be:
+```
+use_kerberos_auth => true,
+krb_srv_keytab    => '/etc/condor/condor.keytab',
+krb_srv_principal => 'condor-daemon/$(FULL_HOSTNAME)@MYREALM',
+krb_srv_user      => 'condor-daemon',
+use_krb_map_file  => true,
+krb_mapfile_entries => {'REALM1' =>'realm1', 'REALM2' => 'realm2'},
+```
+This will deploy a map file containing the entries listed in the `krb_mapfile_entries` hash. The keytab, however, is not deployed through this module and has to be placed to a path corresponding to `krb_srv_keytab`, with the appropriate owner and mode.
+
